4-2 General Safety Precautions

Follow these rules to ensure general safety:

Keep the area around the 1020S-8 clean and free of clutter.

The 1020S-8 weighs approximately 38 lbs (17.3 kg) when fully loaded. When

lifting the system, two people at either end should lift slowly with their feet

spread out to distribute the weight. Always keep your back straight and lift

with your legs.

Place the chassis top cover and any system components that have been

removed away from the system or on a table so that they won't accidentally

be stepped on.

While working on the system, do not wear loose clothing such as neckties and

unbuttoned shirt sleeves, which can come into contact with electrical circuits

or be pulled into a cooling fan.

Remove any jewelry or metal objects from your body, which are excellent metal

conductors that can create short circuits and harm you if they come into

contact with printed circuit boards or areas where power is present.

After accessing the inside of the system, close the system back up and secure

it to the rack unit with the retention screws after ensuring that all connections

have been made.

Serverboard Battery: CAUTION - There is a danger of explosion if the onboard

battery is installed upside down, which will reverse its polarities (see Figure

4-1). This battery must be replaced only with the same or an equivalent type

recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to

the manufacturer's instructions.

CD-ROM Laser: CAUTION - this server may have come equipped with a CD-

ROM drive. To prevent direct exposure to the laser beam and hazardous

radiation exposure, do not open the enclosure or use the unit in any

unconventional way.
